The brick, even though the brick would end up traveling faster, it most likely has a larger surface area therefore it would have more air resistance.

Answer:

since brick is heavy than feather so at that time air resistance on brick will be more than the air resistance on feather

Explanation:

When an object will reach at its terminal velocity then the acceleration of that object will become ZERO

So at that moment of time we can say that net force on the object must be zero or the force of gravity due to its weight is counter balanced by air friction on the object

So when brick will reach to its terminal speed then we have

F_air = m_{brick} g

when feather will reach to its terminal speed

F_{air} = m_{feather} g

so here we can say that since brick is heavy than feather so at that time air resistance on brick will be more than the air resistance on feather

A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

A pet-store supply truck moves at 25.0 m/s north along a highway. inside, a dog moves at 1.75 m/s at an angle of 35.0° east of
koban [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

 Velocity of the dog relative to the road = 26.04 m/s 3.15⁰ north of east.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Let the east point towards positive X-axis and north point towards positive Y-axis.

  Speed of truck = 25 m/s north = 25 j m/s

  Speed of dog = 1.75 m/s at an angle of 35.0° east of north = (1.75 cos 35 i + 1.75 sin 35 j)m/s

                          = (1.43 i + 1.00 j) m/s

    Velocity of the dog relative to the road = 25 j + 1.43 i + 1.00 j = 1.43 i + 26.00 j

    Magnitude of velocity = 26.04 m/s

    Angle from positive horizontal axis = 86.85⁰

 So Velocity of the dog relative to the road = 26.04 m/s 86.85⁰ east of north = 26.04 m/s 3.15⁰ north of east.

Which two pieces of data indicate that Uranus resides in the outer region of the solar system
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Our solar system has total eight planets out of which four are inner planets and four are outer planets. The four outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The common characteristics of outer planets is that they are gaseous planets. They are larger on size than the inner rocky planets and are faraway from Sun. They have larger period of revolution around the Sun.

Uranus is a gaseous planet and lies far from Sun and hence has large period of revolution. It takes 84 Earth years to revolve around Sun. This data indicates that Uranus resides in the outer region of the Solar System.

Explain why it is dangerous to jump from a fast moving train
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

When you jump off a train, you jump off a certain height and your downwards (vertical) velocity is zero. But your forward (horizontal) velocity is not. You will hit the ground on split second with your horizontal velocity practically the same as the train.

Explanation:

you be in serious injury.
